structure / topics / contents

Integrable systems are dynamical systems (non linear PDEs in the classical version, or spectral problems in the quantum version) which are amenable to exact solutions despite their apparent intricacy, often due to the non-trivial existence of many conserved quantities. This course is an introduction to classical and quantum integrable systems, with emphasis on the mechanisms of integrability, and the explicit resolution by mathematical methods of models of physical relevance. The examples used will showcase the large diversity of integrable models.

Physicists and mathematicians are equally welcome.

The course is 4SWS but will be offered in "block format", namely with 6h/week (including 7 exercise sessions) from mid October to end of December.

Validation of the course by preparation of a seminar on an assigned topic.
